10 foot man Posted June 29, 2008 Share Posted June 29, 2008 Right i have finally got one, a nice example of an ep91. She is as near as dam it standard apart from the wheels, a blitz dump valve, turbo timer and an induction kit. I have many plans for her, i have seen some of these producing a good 280bhp+ but don't think i will be spending that sort of money. Firstly she is got a service today, and how awquard is it to get to the oil filter!, we have fitted new iridum spark plugs, new bubs oil etc. Whilst at halfords picking some pits up i decided to do the front speakers as well and bought some kicker 10cm speakers which aren't to bad.Then fingers crossed this month if money permits i am purchasing some shocks and springs i have roughly £300-£350 to spend if any one can make suggestions feel free, and in the not so distant future there will be new brakes ( which will be next month) a full exhaust system and a re-map.I would also like to get a complete front re-spray and she is stone chipped to hell, and a few other things like new stickers and maybe some clear indicators.Excuse the pics they were only taken quickly.

Sparky Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Nice little base Plans sound good, although Starlets cant be remapped, you need to either buy a piggy back ECU (Apexi SACF II for example) or a Standalone ECU (mega bucks!!)Looking forward to some updates Quote Link to post Share on other sites
